How cool would it be if they made a movie with all the creatures and characters from the Judas Priest mythology?: The Electric Eye, the Sentinel, the Jawbreaker, the Painkiller, the Night Crawler... All together in an animated anthology, just like in Heavy Metal movie (1981).
Gianluca Podda, that’s an interesting take, since this song is pure molten metal madness in my opinion! I love Heavy Metal though, as much now as I did 40 years ago, and this song and this entire album is just pure genius.
If you look up heavy metal in the dictionary… You'll likely find the definition for heavy metal… Of which Judas Priest is the greatest band of all time
Painkiller is the most consistently incredible album I’ve heard from front to back. Every track is just incredible. That’s why it’s my second favorite album of all time
It's funny. I grew up as a kid in the 80's with comics as my biggest obsession; X-Men were my favorite. Then I discovered metal right before this album came out. Loved every second of the album from the start of course, and I always associated this song with Kurt Wagner because of my love for the X-Men.
As someone who is much more familiar with the heavier genres of metal and not too familiar with the popular OG heavy metal and Thrash/speed metal bands. I'm trying to get more into those bands and this is the first Judas Priest album I decided to try out, and it's fucking awesome! On the other hand the first Metallica album I heard was Master of Puppets.. And it is good but honestly it didn't hook me as much as I wanted it to, but their first Kill 'em All album was better I thought.
Howling winds keep screaming around And the rain comes pouring down Doors are locked and bolted now As the thing crawls into town Straight out of hell One of a kind Stalking his victim Don't look behind you Nightcrawler Beware the beast in black Nightcrawler You know he's coming back Nightcrawler Sanctuary is being sought Whispered prayers a last resort Homing in its' cry distorts Terror struck they know they're caught Straight out of hell One of a kind Stalking his victim Don't look behind you Nightcrawler Beware the beast in black Nightcrawler You know he's coming back Nightcrawler As night is falling The end is drawing near They'll hear Their last rites echo on the wind (Spoken word) Huddled in the cellar Fear caught in their eyes Daring not to move or breathe As the creature cries Fingernails start scratching On the outside wall Clawing at the windows "Come to me" it calls Atmosphere's electric As it now descends the stairs Hiding in the darkness Is so futile from its glare Death comes in an instant As they hoped it would Souls ascend to heaven While it feasts on flesh and blood
THE album that out of the blue converted an avid Michael Jackson fan (circa 1991) to metal fan. My roommate had it playing all the time and I could not believe how great that music was, it blew my mind.
Halford's 'He's gonna GET YOU!...' shrieks as this legendary song ends finish the whole affair off beautifully... Get to bed before the Nightcrawler gets you!
@@clau1677 judas priest es hermoso, yo lo descubrí después de hartarme de metallica y iron Maiden, fue como un nuevo despertar, después de judas ya no me supo igual la música americana, me incline mas por la musica britanica y el black metal.
I'm from Russia I really like this group 👍💯And this album is a masterpiece. I heard this album for the first time in 1990 and immediately fell in love with it. And I still enjoy listening to it. 😎✌👍💯 Just super cool. 👍💯💯💯
Я с этого альбома начал слушать (стал фанатом) JP. И до сих пор он у меня как-то особняком в списке их дисков. Его как лучшее вино хочется слушать не часто, но от души. =)
I love the atmosphere of this song. It was the first song I heard from this band and I still love this song to this day, although I hardly ever listen to this type of metal anymore. The clean guitar parts are great, Rob's voice, and the ambient sounds, it brings back a lot of good memories of listening to this at night, in the car, it was great.
I had the opportunity to go see them when they came to Argentina in 2011 at the Racing Club stadium, along with Whitesnake. The best recital of my life. It blew my mind. I will never forget it...
This song is one of their best. It is just put together so well. It builds... goes to a break and comes back even stronger. The individual musicianship is just amazing. The guitar throughout and the drums are just mesmerizing and to top it all off the range of Rob Halford's voice pulls it all together. When they say a song is "a banger" this is what they are talking about.
I'm french, I don't understand everything, the only thing I can tell you is that this part gives me chills 4:00, it's sounds so extrem and gives me the courage to do whatever fear me to do when I think about it ^^
En gros ça décris une personne qui se cache dans sa cave pendant que le Night Crawler rôde autour de sa maison, jusqu’a ce qu’il entre finalement et assassine le gars, ça me fais frissonner aussi, la chanson est super !
Found this on Apple Music, was like, really COB playing this? It sounds tremendous, they rock, the keyboards, the solo, the voice, how incredible is, one of the best covers made ever, totally different generations and able to create something like that, awesome…
I actually recently became a Judas Priest fan After hearing powerwolf's cover of this song this is freaking amazing now I wanna buy all the albums I can off of iTunes
Yeah, I love Powerwolf and I’ve heard their entire discography but the Priest version of this song is still my go-to. Both amazing though. This is one of my favorite Judas Priest songs.
Makes sense considering it depicts the lyrics of "Painkiller" which is arguably the most singular and pure concentration of heavy metal in sound form. Like to the point I can't think of a song in a different genre to accurately compare it to. Also, disagree. You'd probably see a picture of like, lead or something. Lol/j
Sin duda descubrir el rock y el metal ha sido mi mas grande hallasgo y judas priest es una de las bandas que confirma mi grandiosa elecion tengo 17 y prefiero mil veces esto a escuchar reggeton como los demas.

There's other things too
DUUUUUUUUUDE that would be so kick-ass
Super!
Pure madness \m/
Whos everyones betting pick for which one comes out on top of the rumble? I’d take either the Crawler or Electric Eye
This song is pure gold. The thunder effect at the start, the riffs, Rob's vocal delivery and the atmosphere it creates just nails it.
Gianluca Podda, that’s an interesting take, since this song is pure molten metal madness in my opinion! I love Heavy Metal though, as much now as I did 40 years ago, and this song and this entire album is just pure genius.
NAILS IT
I play it on stormy nights
Exactly
Let’s not forget the end of the world solo .
I listen to this song every time I hit a pr at the gym and always get it. This song is the best
It's about time they got into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame! They've earned it! Congratulations Rob Halford
RandRHofFame deserves the name now.
Finally, they do it
Well 3 of the four at least. Downing forfeited his place after that childish bullshit he pulled.
imho they are the hall
They weren't before??? What the hell?
If you look up heavy metal in the dictionary… You'll likely find the definition for heavy metal… Of which Judas Priest is the greatest band of all time
💯
Who decided that?
Marketing?
I still can't believe how good of an album Painkiller is. Every song on it is beyond amazing
Painkiller is the most consistently incredible album I’ve heard from front to back. Every track is just incredible. That’s why it’s my second favorite album of all time
Witnessed the PAINKILLER TOUR 12/20/1990 at the Miami Arena...Phenomenal Show!
The PAINKILLER album has most definitely stood the test of time!

@@cookiesontoast9981 listen to The Call of Ktulu, Fight Fire With Fire, and Fade To Black. Those are good songs from the RTL album
50+ years on it and still kicking ass!
Only 35, but still quit making us all feel old LOL
This is actually my favorite album from them Painkiller is legendary 🤘
My favorite is Defenders of the faith. Painkiller is second, Screaming 4 vengeance 3th.
You say it like this album isnt that good lol ..only Judas I listen to is rught here and metalworks ,🤘🖤
Same. Second is Screaming for vengeance third is British steel and fourth it's firepower surprisingly
The only song of them you actually know is painkiller that's why
F
Howling winds keep screaming around
And the rain comes pouring down
Doors are locked and bolted now
As the thing crawls into town
Straight out of hell
One of a kind
Stalking his victim
Don't look behind you
Nightcrawler
Beware the beast in black
Nightcrawler
You know he's coming back
Nightcrawler
Sanctuary is being sought
Whispered prayers a last resort
Homing in its' cry distorts
Terror struck they know they're caught
Straight out of hell
One of a kind
Stalking his victim
Don't look behind you
Nightcrawler
Beware the beast in black
Nightcrawler
You know he's coming back
Nightcrawler
As night is falling
The end is drawing near
They'll hear
Their last rites echo on the wind
(Spoken word)
Huddled in the cellar
Fear caught in their eyes
Daring not to move or breathe
As the creature cries
Fingernails start scratching
On the outside wall
Clawing at the windows
"Come to me" it calls
Atmosphere's electric
As it now descends the stairs
Hiding in the darkness
Is so futile from its glare
Death comes in an instant
As they hoped it would
Souls ascend to heaven
While it feasts on flesh and blood
Pure Metal poetry.
From Sweden.
Heja dig.
No shit! 😀🇬🇧
You know the chorus repeats after the bridge, right?
muito foda 🇧🇷 e se disser que não, baixa a bola que qualquer hora a gente pode aparecer aí 🐍
2:36 That is INSANELY GOOD the best vocalist of all music
True
Ronnie James Dio is slightly better.
Listen to "Computer God - Black Sabbath" or "Devil Cried - Dio"
@@micha443 Halford has/had that insanely wide vocal rage, though.
I'm open minded. In time I may agree. He is underrated.

Fucking amazing
No rule against being a fan of both MJ and metal.
Well, it's okay to be both, I loveMichael Jackson and he is my favorite singer of all time but I also love metal c:
Michael Jackson is the shit ngl.
Hahah the first thing I heard other then my parents music was Slipknot, Korn and Linkin Park on Kerrang. Fell in love instantly. Still loved MJ though
Halford's 'He's gonna GET YOU!...' shrieks as this legendary song ends finish the whole affair off beautifully...
Get to bed before the Nightcrawler gets you!
This is masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hail from Portugal.
We really need the Priest in Lisbon!!!
I got 2%portugal....but I'm french in Ga USA ...this is my music from my day...wish SOOO hard I cud go back to those days😢😢😢😢
30 years later, this guitar-voice co working still make my cry with goosebumps....
It’s f******g BAD ASS!!! If you drink some water and listen this song will take you there🤘🏻
Oh my gosh i've listened to this song thoundsands times yet every time is like te first time. Glorious.
One of the first albums I bought on a CD. I was so excited, and it was as awesome then as is today.
This song is a masterpiece
Yeah it is and u look hot
Right on dude keep on rocking

This whole album is metal history.
History of heavy metal is in 80's ;-)
What a great line….
Death comes in an instant
As they hoped it would
Souls ascend to heaven
While it feasts on flesh and blood
touch of evil + night crawler + pain killer = nightmares for days for the childrens
Great picks in your list!
